Gabrielle Ducomble

Now a firm favourite in her adopted UK, talented vocalist

Parisian-style jazz and tango, putting a contemporary spin on songs
by Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel, Serge Gainsbourg and Astor Piazzolla,
plus her own original material. Her band, including some of
Europe's finest musicians in an authentic line-up of guitar and
accordion, provides the perfect anchor for her superlative
vocals.

Her latest album Notes From Paris, which was Jazz FM's
Album of the Week on its launch, was acclaimed by critics, who
called it "Polished, classy and refined... such a strong
statement."

Gabrielle has performed at top London venues, from intimate jazz
clubs to concert halls. She sang with the Aurora Orchestra at the
Royal Festival Hall as part of 2013's The Rest Is Noise
festival and In 2014 she starred at the St James Theatre as part of
its Jazz Diva series. She has completed two UK tours gathering fans
in jazz clubs from Wakefield to St Ives. In 2015 her band appeared

French Pop Idol in 2003. Along with the other finalists, she signed
to BMG Sony France and the resulting album went double gold. She
also toured with pop star Lara Fabian on her international tour 'Un
Regard Neuf'.
